Hi Fynnjamin - I could use some of your expertise regarding British choral composers.
From Novello's Part-Song Book, I have a copy of The Four Jolly Smiths, a part song by "R.T Leslie" with words by "J. Louis Rockliffe". Many sources attribute this to a Henry T. Leslie. Do you know who that is?
I assume that it's not the famous Henry David Leslie (1822-1896), a choral conductor.
I've seen references to
- Leslie, Henry, 1830-1881
- Henry T. Leslie, Mus. Doc.
- Henry Temple Leslie, Mus. Doc., and
- Henry Temple Leslie (c. 1825-76).
To whom should I give credit for The Four Jolly Smiths? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.
